Vantage Black Sticks face England in semis

The semi finals schedule has now been confirmed at the Sentinel Homes Hockey World League Final in Auckland.

After a stunning 2-1 result over Argentina in the quarter finals the Vantage Black Sticks go up against England at 8:15pm on Friday night, following the classification playoff between Argentina and Germany at 6:00pm.

On Saturday night USA clash with China in their classification match at 6:00pm before the Netherlands face Korea in the second semi final at 8:15pm.
